1. I wanted to know where the compiled hex files stored when we are using crimson editor...
Only the latest compiled hex file is stored in the GCBasic directory. If the file does not compile, then no hex file. Looking in the Crimson Editor output window, you should see something like this if successfully compiled:
---------- Capture Output ----------
> "C:\Program Files\GCBasic\Compile.bat" C:\PROGRA~1\CRIMSO~1\MCHP-L~1\FORUMS~1
Great Cow BASIC (0.9 6/10/2007)
Compiling C:\PROGRA~1\CRIMSO~1\MCHP-L~1\FORUMS~1 ...
Program compiled successfully!

3. Are the last two IDE's that are available on this page working well... I wanted to know if the viruses in my computer arent affecting that because they are giving faults in my computer...
Have you got a chip programmed with GCBasic? I would suggest getting some sample programs done with the Crimson Editor first. Then, when you are comfortable with how GCBasic works, try out the other IDE's (they are relativey new to GCBasic).
Here's a program that you can cut and paste to try out. I think you said that you were using a 16f877? If it is a 16f877a then change the chip definition to that. Also change the chip mhz if using a different oscillator.
#chip 16f877, 20
#define Transmit PORTA.0 ;led output pin
dir PORTA.0 out
Start:
Set Transmit On
wait 1 s
Set Transmit Off
wait 1 s
goto Start
